LOCATION: Forest County – Deer population objectives that will be used to help formulate hunting opportunities over the next three years will be the topic of discussion at the Forest County Board Room on October 29th starting at 7:00 PM. While this is a working meeting of the Forest County Deer Advisory Council, the public is encouraged to attend and will have an opportunity to discuss issues and provide comment. County Deer Advisory Councils are a newly formed body as part of an effort to provide more public input on deer management issues and give stakeholders a greater responsibility in managing local deer numbers. Councils will also meet in October and December as they develop a recommendation to the DNR as to how many deer they would like in their respective county. Council meetings will develop recommendations to the DNR regarding deer population objectives in their respective county, antlerless quotas, and season structure options. Through their participation, CDAC members and meeting participants will be given a direct stake in managing Wisconsin’s deer herd. Meetings are being held this fall, as will happen every three years, to develop deer herd population objective recommendations to the department. Councils will meet each spring to develop antlerless deer harvest quotas for deer hunting seasons and consider various strategies to meet population objectives. Local department staff will be on hand to present information and answer any questions and discuss possible strategies for managing the local deer herd. Anyone interested in making a statement at the meeting must pre-register by contacting Alan Harrison, Forest County CDAC chair at 715-473-3921. In order to accommodate all who wish to speak, statements will be limited to three minutes. Mock accident drill at the Wabeno Town Hall Saturday October 18th, 2014 the Wabeno Jr./ Sr. High FCCLA members are hosting a mock accident at the Wabeno Town Hall. The event will begin at 11:00 a.m. at the Wabeno Town Hall. The public is invited to come and watch! From within the town hall you can watch the training activity take place outside and enjoy some refreshments also. The purpose of the training is to help strengthen the interpersonal communication skills between the area’s surrounding agencies, including law enforcement, fire department, and rescue agencies. The accident is going to be promoting anti-texting and driving and anti-drinking and driving. Wabeno high school students will be playing the roles of victims in the accident. The accident is being arranged in conjunction with National Teen Driver Safety Week which begins Sunday October 19th and concludes on October 25. Wabeno FCCLA members Kaitlyn Ashbeck, Abigail Ashbeck, and Hannah Reed along with other FCCLA students will be using this important event as a focus for their FCCLA competitive events this year. Abigail and Kaitlyn put together and planned the mock accident as their interpersonal communication competitive event. Hannah is doing an event called advocacy, and she will be trying to find advocates for anti-texting and driving. Teenage distracted driving is an issue that not only Wabeno Jr./Sr. High FCCLA cares deeply about, but it is also a National FCCLA and Wisconsin FCCLA initiative project.

It's a flying squirrel sent to us by a photographer named Dale. Do you think the squirrel is named Rocky? Gordon Connor, left, Chief Tidwell, center, and Senator Baldwin discuss timber issues in the autumn woods. By Mike Monte Senator Tammy Baldwin paid her third visit to Forest County and the Northwoods in about a year's time. Baldwin said, after her first visit, that she was going to make National Forest timber issues one of her top priorities, and it appears that she is true to her word. With each visit, she meets with timber industry leaders and she also has developed a good understanding of what the issues are, the importance of the timber industry to the state and the nation, and has a more complete understanding of how the logging and sawmill industry works. On this visit, Senator Baldwin was accompanied Continued on page 20 Reasons to “Give” By Celine Kegley Last spring I wrote an article talking about the reasons to run 5K races, telling not only the benefits to the runner, but also the benefits to the organization putting on the race. Now I would like to talk about the reasons to “give”. Most people probably don’t even think about “giving” to others. Have we lost the ‘Art of Giving’ along with the children’s games of marbles and jacks? What got me thinking about this was when I thought about how my mother, Mavis Wood, has sponsored almost all of my brother, Jack, and my races this past summer and last summer. She paid the entry fee for almost all of the races we ran. A few of them were free. So far this summer we have run twelve 5K races and two 10K races.

B19ETC Submitted by Kate Schultz Just for Guys: Prostate Health More than 230,000 new cases of prostate cancer are diagnosed each year in the U.S. Scientists have yet to learn how to prevent prostate cancer -- other than to protect your health in general: • Eat a wide variety of fruits and vegetables each day. Get at least 2 1/2 cups of vegetables and 2 cups of fruit per day. Tip: Eating cruciferous vegetables, such as cabbage, broccoli and radishes, has been shown in studies to reduce prostate cancer risk. • Adopt a low-fat diet. Select leaner cuts and small servings of meat (1 serving equals 3 ounces, about the size of a card deck), avoid fatty snacks and choose low-fat dairy foods. • Limit alcohol. Long-term, heavy drinking has been linked to increased risk. • Lose excess weight. Being obese increases your risk. • Exercise aerobically most days of the week. Check with your health care provider first if you have high blood pressure or other health complications. The American Cancer Society advises normalrisk men to consult their health care provider about prostate cancer screening by age 50. If you are African American or you have a first-degree relative with prostate cancer, see your provider at age 45. The ACS recommends age 40 for men at highest risk - those who Handicap Accessible LOT PRICES REDUCED!

He was born in Crandon on August 11, 1945, the son of Herb and Edith (Wilber) Adams. He graduated from Crandon High School 1964 and served his country in the United States Air Force until 1971, finally returning to his beloved Crandon area to be near his family and friends. He was an avid hunter, fisherman and professional "BS'er!" Louie had a deep love of the outdoors and 4 wheeling with his family and friends. He was always taking pictures of family, beautiful scenery and his beloved pets. He is survived by his loving wife of 47 years, Wilma; children, Herb (Lisa) Adams, Amy (Chris) McCorkle, Edie (Kriston) Adams and Kim (Amy) Adams; grandchildren, Patrick (Patch) Adams, Matthew (Tara) Adams, Allan (Kayla) Smith, Christopher, Dylan, Kassidy, and Rylee McCorkle, Brady Adams, Kobe Adams, Belle Adams, Emmet and Zander Adams-Daniels; greatgrandchildren, Taytum, Dexter, and Tayah McCorkle; sisters, Pauline May, Glenda (Bob) Conn (of Crandon), Bart (Keith) Atkins (Oregon), and Joyce (Jim) Landrum (Colorado); good friends, Jim and Arkinsaw and so many more. Louie was a kind and generous man and he would do anything to help the ones he loved and cared about. He, as well as his crazy-spontaneous sense of humor (which will be carried on by his children and grandchildren), will be greatly missed by all his family and friends. In lieu of flowers, donations can be sent to either the Forest County Humane Society (701 Industrial Parkway, Crandon, WI 54520) or the Washburn County Humane Society (1400 Cottonwood Ave., Spooner, WI 54801).

Some of the ones benefiting were: autistic children getting ipads, the American Cancer Society, the Forest County Humane Society, Forest County Youth Sports Organizations, Antigo Youth Organizations, Langlade Boys & Girls Club, Camp Luther Christian Summer Campers, and several scholarships. On behalf of everyone that my mother “gave” to, I would like to “give” her a great big Thank-you! I often hear people say that they don’t have anything to “give”, but I don’t believe that. Money isn’t the only thing that you can “give”. Just look at our community when a tragedy strikes a family. Last April my sister, Carol lost her home in Laona to a fire. My daughter, Dezirae and Dawn & Jimmy from Pack ‘Em Inn “gave” a lot of their time, their talent (they were excellent at what they did), and their resources and put together a wonderful Benefit for my sister. It was unbelievable to see how many local businesses and individuals “gave” things to help make her benefit a huge success. Almost all of the businesses in Crandon and Laona donated to her cause. There are not enough words to thank everyone that “gave” to the benefit and for the excellent job that Dezirae, Dawn & Jimmy did, unselfishly “giving” to help out someone in need. Another example of “giving” is the Tribe that I’ve been working for, for the last 13 years. It is not unusual to pick up the newspaper and see the Forest County Potawatomi Tribe “giving” to groups or organizations. It is also evident of how they “give” by the way their treat their elders, children, tribal members and tribal employees. Thanks for all you “give”. Also, I work at the Crandon School where I see a lot of the teachers and staff going above and beyond “giving” to their students, to try and help them succeed. I see coaches that “give” up their free time to help young athletes. Rather than sitting on their cozy recliners, in their warm house, they are out in the heat or cold, rain, or snow or in a hot gymnasium “giving” young kids an opportunity to experience something that they can’t experience playing a video game. I see parents “giving” all their efforts to get from work to gymnastics classes in the evenings because their young children really want to learn how to tumble. Thanks to everyone. If you still can’t think of any ways that you personally can “give”, here are some ideas to think about: Put down your electronic devices and “give” the person you are with ‘your undivided attention’. Get off of Facebook and visit ‘face-to-face’ with someone and “give” them ‘your ear’; really listen to them or “give” them ‘your shoulder’ to cry on. “Give” someone a ‘helping hand’. “Give” some of ‘your blood’ to a blood drive. Get your kids off of their video games and “give” them ‘some of your time’. You could take them out running/walking. I can tell you all kinds of reasons to run! “Give” your spouse/significant other ‘your understanding’, ‘your unconditional love’ and ‘your heart’. Too often, when things get tough in our relationships, we stop “giving” to each other or stop trying to make it work. “Give” others ‘respect’ and they will “give” it back. “Give” someone a ‘high-five’ for a job well done. “Give” someone a ‘penny for their thoughts’ or “give” them ‘some food for thought’. “Give” others ‘your friendship’, ‘your eye-tooth’ for something or if you have to, “give” them ‘the shirt off your back’. Just make sure that you have another shirt underneath it! All kidding aside, take time to thank all those individuals and businesses that “give” so much to us every day, and don’t be afraid to “give.” BUYING NOW Aluminum Cans! 49¢/lb Complete Autos.................$170/GT Auto Bodies......................$145/GT Tin/Appliances..................$120/GT No. 1 Copper......................$2.15/lb No. 2 Copper......................$1.95/lb Misc.

The amount of the heating assistance benefit varies depending on a variety of factors, including the household's size, income and heating costs. In most cases the heating assistance benefit is paid directly to the household energy supplier. ELIGIBILITY Your household may be eligible for WHEAP and WAP services based on a number of factors. However, if the gross income for your household is less than the amount shown on the following chart, you might be eligible to receive assistance. Applications for both programs are accepted at your local WHEAP agency. Program services are available without regard to race, color, sex, age, religion, national origin, or mental/physical handicap. Income for people who are self-employed, farmers or seasonal workers is based on federal income tax forms for the previous year. 3 MONTH COMBINED INCOME Family Size 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 An Outreach Worker will be at the following: Wabeno Community Building, Mon., Oct. 27, 10:30 - 12:00 Armstrong Creek Nutrition Site: Tues., Oct. 28, 10:30 - 12:00 Crandon Community Building, Wed., Oct. 29, 10:30 - 12:00 Alvin Town Hall, Thurs., Oct. 30, 10:30 - 12:00 Laona Sr. Center: Tues., Nov. 4, 10:30 - 12:00 WHAT TO BRING WITH YOU: Family Income • Proof of household income for prior 3 months $6,288 •Benefit letters for Social Security, retirement & veteran's benefits $8,223 •Latest energy bill from WPS or WE Energies $10,150 •Fuel costs from 9/1/2013 - 8/31/2014 $12,092 •First time applicants need Soc.

As we have always said on these pages, there is not enough timber being cut on the ChequamegonNicolet to maintain a healthy timber industry on a local level, and the deal made with the federal government by our county board in the 20's with the federal government to give control of about 51% of Forest County's land base in exchange for a viable, sustainable timber industry in Forest and surrounding counties is not being kept. In addition, the 25% fund, whereby a fourth of the gross sales off the forest are paid back to local government, is not a large enough number to compensate for the loss of land base and resource. These days, it is the schools that suffer from the loss of revenue, in addition to the lack of resources available to local sawmills and logging contractors. It has taken years of rhetoric and reams of writing on the subject, but it does appear that there are people in the federal government who are listening. On Wednesday, Chief Tidwell held a press conference in Wausau, followed by a Timber Round Table in Rhinelander with northeast Wisconsin forest stakeholders, followed by a visit to the woods near Laona, with a tour that started at the Nicolet Hardwoods office. An entourage of Forest Service employees, timber people and reporters visited a Nicolet Hardwoods logging site about a mile from Laona, where the management practices used by Nicolet Hardwoods and their predecessor, Connor Lumber and Land were discussed. When on the Nicolet Hardwoods logging site, Gordon Connor talked of Wisconsin being the first state to incorporate a forest crop law, and talked of the success of the program. On this logging site, land records show that the first timber cutting was in 1935, and he added that this was a learning experience for all involved. The 1935 cut took 70% of the stand, which meant that the second cut came in 1962. Now, a cut will allow another cut in ten years, with a volume and value growth of 15% per year. This site has been cut a total of seven times counting the 1935 cut. It is still a nice timber stand that can be harvested again in ten years. Chief Tidwell said that he approved of the results, but pointed out that for the Forest Service to cut every ten years would be too expensive, and they would look at successive cuts at 20 or even 30 years, and would factor that time element into the management plan for a site. Tidwell went on to say that we are lucky to have the mix of forest lands in our region, with Forest Service, county, and private timberlands available. He spoke of coordination between county and federal lands and suggested that a forester could possibly inspect logging sites on both ownerships, thereby cutting costs to both the county and the federal government. Above all, he said, we must have satisfied purchasers of that timber. The second site visited was a Forest Service stand that was more than ready for a cutting, but the problem is that while a cut was planned for 2002, the sale was appealed and litigated in court, with the Forest Service winning the case. The problem is that the cutting plan had to change as the years of litigation went by, so more expense was incurred to do more planning in 2013. The area is currently being prepared for timber sales. Senator Baldwin said that we all have to work together to make the national forests successful, and that she was grateful that Chief Tidwell was here. Tidwell said that it was an informative trip and that he looked forward to everybody working together, not just for today, but for the benefit of future generations. Gordon Connor begins the forest tour on the steps of the Nicolet Hardwoods office in Laona Wisconsin has plans to respond to Ebola in Wisconsin Department of Health Services is Working with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to Ensure Health Care Providers are Prepared MADISON--The Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS), in collaboration with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), has plans in place to respond in the event a case of Ebola virus appears in the state. There is currently an Ebola outbreak in West Africa; however, no one has contracted the Ebola virus in Wisconsin. "We understand people are concerned about the Ebola virus, especially with a recently diagnosed case in the United States. While there are no cases of Ebola in Wisconsin, and the risk of contracting it remains low, it's important that medical and public health professionals are able to respond in the event there is a case in the state," said Karen McKeown, State Health Officer, "Should someone in the state contract Ebola, DHS will ensure that the public and health care providers receive prompt public health information." Since the Ebola virus outbreak began in West Africa, DHS has been assisting health care partners by providing guidelines for monitoring individuals returning from affected countries in that region. DHS also continues to ensure that all health care providers are prepared with the appropriate infection control protocols and required precautions for managing an Ebola patient. DHS continues to communicate with the CDC for current developments and guidelines and shares that information with health care providers and local health departments in Wisconsin. "For the general public, we want to stress that the chances of anyone in Wisconsin contracting the Ebola virus are very low," McKeown continued. "Ebola is only spread through contact with the body fluids of people who are sick with the virus. It cannot be transmitted through the air. In fact, influenza is more contagious than the Ebola virus. That said, DHS remains vigilant in its monitoring of the Ebola virus, and will continue to provide our partners and the public with the most current information and guidance concerning this disease."
